Intro
Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm G Bm
Travelin' down that coal town road
D A Bm
Listenin' to my rubber tires whine
Bm G Bm
Goodbye to Buckeye and white Sycamore
D A Bm
I'm leavin' you behind
D A Bm
I've been a coal miner all of my life
Bm A G A
Layin' down track in the hole
D G D
Got a back like an ironwood, bent by the wind
Bm A Bm
Blood veins blue as the coal
G A Bm
Blood veins blue as the coal
[Verse 2]
Bm G Bm
Somebody said, "That's a strange tattoo
D A Bm
you have on the side of your head"
Bm G Bm
I said, "That's the blueprint left by the coal
D A Bm
Just a little more and I'd be dead"
D A Bm
But I love the rumble and I love the dark
Bm A G A
I love the cool of the slate
D G D
But it's on down the new road, lookin' for a job
G A Bm
This travelin' and lookin' I hate
[Verse 3]
Bm G Bm
I've stood for the union, walked in the line,
D A Bm
fought against the company
Bm G Bm
Stood for the U.M.W. of A.
D A Bm
Now, who's gonna stand for me?
D A Bm
I've got no house and I got no pay,
Bm A G A
just got a worried soul
D G D
And this blue tattoo on the side of my head,
Bm A Bm
left by the number nine coal
G A Bm
Left by the number nine coal
[Verse 4]
Bm G Bm
Someday when I die and go
D A Bm
to heaven, the land of my dreams
Bm G Bm
I won't have to worry on losin' my job,
D A Bm
to bad times or big machines
D A Bm
I'm not goin' to pay my money away
Bm A G A
for dues or hospital plans
D G D
I'm gonna pick coal while the blue heavens roll
G A Bm
and sing with the angel band
[Outro]
D A Bm
I'm not goin' to pay my money away
Bm A G A
for dues or hospital plans
D G D
I'm gonna pick coal while blue heavens roll
Bm A Bm
and sing with the angel band
